Is there a press mounted powder measure that's consistent to .01 gr?

Daddyseal I think JM was saying is look to other areas as a 4" group at 17 yds wasn't good. What is the load you are currently using? I had a Taurus in 357 that loved gas checked bullets more than plain base. 44man who contributes quite a bit to this list, I believe shoots groups under two inches at 100 yds. Don't quote me on that. I find my Dan Wesson really likes heavy for caliber bullets. It will shoot plain base and gas checked very well. I like H4227 and H110/296 for powders and CCI 350 for primers.

All in all there is a lot you can do for the firearm alone. As I get older, I need better sights. There have been some really great tips on this forum provided to you.

This is a very good read.

Also evaluate the pistol rest your using. What reloading setup are you using. There are more variables than can be imagined.

Take care brother and I originally misread your post about .01 not .1

Very interesting info on .44 caliber revolvers~!
LOTs of information there!!...I'll read more, when I have time...Thanks~
Yes, I'm finding about all the variables, etc., from other members here.

I don't use a "rest" to do it...just a weaver stance and take my time with the shots, friend.

Same here. I test by rounds the same way I expect to fire them in an actual situation--be it hunting, target shooting, self-defense, a competition, etc.

Now, the (potential) downfall to this is the ability to be 100% honest with yourself if you're having a bad shooting day, which happens to everyone on occasion, and realize that it is MY fault (the shooter) and not the gun or the ammo.

Yep, I have 'em too ;} ..Doesn't everyone, friend?
I totally agree~

You must be talking about rifle reloading...I'm talking about my .44 magnum revolver here (mostly)

A few post back you mentioned about starting reloading for your rifles soon. I read it as you were getting prepared to do some real accurate shooting.

You need to shoot from a rest if you want to know how consistent your ammo/revolver is. If you're not going to shoot from a rest then don't bother weighing your powder to .05 grains.
Earlier you said "consistency is important to me". Use a rest.
Also when shooting off hand, don't fight the 44 magnum, learn how to manage it, I call it roll with the recoil.

Yes, I do...I let it do it's own thing, similar to Dirty Harry
And when I shoot my rifles, I , of course, will use the rests at the range~
